The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior

Looking at those who quit at this moment, Huo Hongyuan did not try to persuade them any further.

Concerned with life and death, there was nothing he could do if these people didn't want to try. After all, he was merely a chairman, not an emperor, much less one of those life-disregarding Abyss Demon Gods.

But in his mind, those who quit still lost a few points in his estimation.

As Professionals, if they didn't even have a spirit for adventure, how were they any different from a salted fish?

Might as well go back and become civilians.

As an experienced Peak Second-Turn Professional, he had experienced countless life-and-death situations.

There were even several times he barely escaped from the Abyss with half his life.

So it was no wonder he looked down on these young people.

"Chairman Lin, it all depends on you now!" Huo Hongyuan said to Lin Ye.

He trusted that Lin Ye would have no problem completing the mission.

After all, just a few days ago, Lin Ye had tackled an extremely challenging Level 30 Alternate Space, 'Mist Swamp.'

Compared to 'Mist Swamp,' the 'West City Battle' was child's play.

The only thing he couldn't be sure of was how many of the ten people who followed Lin Ye into the 'West City Battle' would come back alive.

Asking these rookies, whose average level was only Level 20, to face a Level 30 Abyss Difficulty Secret Realm was almost tantamount to sending them to their deaths.

Among these people, besides Lin Ye, only Huo Ting had reached Level 25.

The rest were basically around Levels 20 and 21, so even a Level 30 minor monster would already be an insurmountable existence for them.

In response to Huo Hongyuan's exhortation, Lin Ye just nodded slightly.

Since he chose this Secret Realm and dared to challenge it at the Abyss Level, he naturally had confidence.

He wouldn't sacrifice so many innocent people just to satisfy his desire to challenge an Abyssal Secret Realm.

Not to mention, people like Hook were his friends.

"If everyone is ready, then let's begin now."

Lin Ye said.

The group immediately stood upright, indicating that they were ready to enter the Secret Realm.

Seeing these people, Lin Ye couldn't help but nod secretly.

It had to be said that Huo Hongyuan had some insight in selecting people.

Except for those who fled at the last minute, the people here were undoubtedly the elites among their peers.

Although some lacked talent, their mentality made up for their talent deficiencies.

"Then let's begin!"

Lin Ye selected the 'West City Battle' on the Secret Realm panel and then chose the Abyss Difficulty.

In the next moment, a teleportation array appeared under his feet and those of the ten Iron Blade Guild newcomers. With a flash of light, they vanished where they stood.

Watching Lin Ye and his group disappear in front of him, Huo Hongyuan couldn't help but clench his fists. Despite his confidence in Lin Ye, he was still so nervous that his palms were sweating.

As a Professional, he firmly believed that to become a successful Professional, one must have a spirit of adventure.

But as a father, he only hoped his daughter would return safely.

The people present had varied thoughts. Besides Huo Hongyuan and other high-level members, those few newcomers who chose to quit felt uneasy....

Watching their fellow guild rookies follow Lin Ye to conquer the Abyssal Secret Realm, they couldn't shake the feeling that they might have missed out on something.

Perhaps only when those who entered the 'West City Battle' paid an extremely heavy price and returned with failure would it prove their choice was not wrong.

Otherwise, they would certainly struggle to get by in Iron Blade.

[The team of Professional 'Lin Ye' has entered the Abyss-level 'West City Battle Lv30'!]

Immediately, a regional announcement appeared before them.

Whenever someone entered an Abyss-level Secret Realm, a regional announcement would appear.

Thus, virtually all Professionals within Shan City were the first to know that Lin Ye was leading a team into an Abyss-level Secret Realm.

"West City Battle? Is Lin Ye doing this to help Iron Blade Guild pass this year's assessment?"

"That's right! 'West City Battle' seems to be the guild's assessment Secret Realm!"

"But… why choose Abyss level? Isn't that making it harder for themselves?"

"If they fail, Iron Blade is definitely going to get downgraded. How did Huo Hongyuan agree to let Lin Ye act so recklessly?"

"I think Lin Ye failing isn't likely, but those who followed him succeeding isn't likely either…"

As one of the most famous people in Shan City, Lin Ye's every move was indisputably a hot topic.

It was obvious to anyone with some information that Lin Ye was standing in for Iron Blade Guild for the assessment.

But it seemed Lin Ye was taking too big a step, going straight for the Abyss level…

This wasn't just helping Iron Blade maintain its rank; it was practically aiming to help Iron Blade get promoted!

...

At this moment, Lin Ye's group had already appeared in a dim forest.

The dense clouds blocked the moonlight in the sky above. Their only light source was the campfire in their temporary rest camp,

"Wow… this environment is a bit creepy…" Hook rubbed his arms, feeling a bit chilled.

The others were also looking around nervously.

Among the people present, besides Hook and Huo Ting who had challenged Abyss-level Secret Realms with Lin Ye before, the rest were trying this level for the first time.

To most Professionals, an Abyss-level is the domain of the strong, deadly to the ordinary!

So for typical leveling and gathering, the most they'd choose was difficulty mode, not daring even to think about the Abyss level.

However, unlike Hook, who was acquainted with Lin Ye, the others dared not show the slight unease within themselves.

"Don't worry, with the boss here, nothing will happen."

Huo Ting stepped up and said reassuringly.

At that moment, a prompt appeared before everyone's eyes.

[Generating task…]

[Task: Within ten days, transport the 'supplies' to 'West City' and assist the generals of 'West City' in repelling the 'Blood-toothed Orcs']

The task had appeared!

As Secret Realm Challengers, their mission was to deliver the batch of supplies now before them to a town called 'West City.'

The task had few constraints, just requiring completion within ten days.

"Let's start! Don't waste any time!"

"Yeah! Let's start, start!"

Several newcomers, seeing the task appear, stood up to begin the task immediately.

But it was obvious that their hands were trembling…

They were only pretending to be calm.

Lin Ye smiled slightly, his mind set in motion.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, a tremendously violent roar erupted!

A massive black shadow appeared above the camp, and a powerful gust sent debris flying!

"A dragon… Giant Dragon!"

The rookies present looked up and were so scared they nearly wet themselves.
